lost sticky notes with Fall Creator

Although my Windows 10 Fall Creator update went well, it lost my existing Sticky Notes.
How can I get back my Sticky Notes prior to the update?

Thanks in advance to all who reply.

That is because Sticky Notes are a legacy software and they were noted by Microsoft when they put the information out about Anniversary Edition and replaced them with the App version. See http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/ge...0-anniversary/ for getting the legacy version back.

Thanks, but I was never able to get v1703 to work (MS support said I had some sort of driver issue(?) which caused the update to fail) but surprisingly v1709 worked with no problems (except for this Sticky Notes issue).
So I don't believe your article applies to me since I never had Redstone on my system.
Thanks anyhow,
Dan

Hello Dan, :)

If you like, you could use Option Four in the tutorial below to restore your old Sticky Notes to the new one.

Hi Brink,
I searched my PC and have no "snt" file to rename, as described in Step 6 of Option 4.
Other than that, the article looked promising.

Dan,

If you haven't already, check to see if you may have a "C:Windows.old" folder that your .snt files may be at instead.

Brink:
I use the "EVERYTHING" search utility which is very thorough and no WINDOWS.OLD folder exists nor *.snt files.
I guess without the '*.snt' file I'm out of luck.
